Thank you Paul!
I have read through the section you recomemnded. But I can not find the definition of the intermediate file. After reading this section, the definition of intermediate file in my mind is, -------------------- temporary files created by implicit rules or chains of implicit rules to build the targets. -------------------- Is that a correct understanding? Or the precise definition of intermediate file is located somewhere else in GNU make manual? regards, George --- "Paul D.
